Special Seating for the Grad

Keep the grad front and center of the celebration with a unique chair at the head of the table. It is a small touch that will make them feel extra special for the day! But it will also help direct guests to the graduate, perfect if you’re hoping to snag some photographs. We have many modern specialty chairs to choose from, like our Ghost Acrylic Arm Chair and Farrah Teal Velvet Chair. Or take a look at our retro-chic Gold Bamboo Arm Cha

Pink and mint walked into a wedding at @cjsoffthesquare and honestly? They owned it. 🌸

Floral ceremony, white folding chairs, and reception tables that committed fully to the color story.

Moody done right. 🍷
Deep plum linens, rattan chargers, and our Lucia Frayed Napkins — this table had texture coming from every direction without ever feeling like too much.

From the first drink to the last plate — this is the part guests remember. ✨ A cocktail that lands right, a table that actually felt designed.

The @franklinrodeo is proof that corporate events don't have to play it safe 🤠

Amber glassware, cowhide rugs, wood furniture, a large bar — the setup had a clear point of view and the crowd responded to it. When the rental selections match the energy of the event, guests notice!

Something new is in the showroom ✨

Meet Welles — a soft blue china with a delicate pattern around the rim that sits right in that sweet spot between understated and memorable. Also available in Wheat for a warmer take on the same quiet elegance.

Fresh, bright, and just the right amount of fun. 🍊

This setup for @GraceWorksTN is giving us all the spring feels — orange and white pops of color paired with our new Natural Willow chairs. Simple, cozy, and somehow exactly right.

Harlindale Farm hits different in the evening. 🌿

Loved being part of the @friendsoffranklinparks event — barn setting, bright linens, vintage-inspired blue glassware, and the kind of crowd that genuinely cares about this place. Franklin does community well!

Cocktail hour deserves a proper glass. 🍋

The right glassware changes how a drink feels in your hand — and how it looks on the table. These citrus-forward sips hit different when they're served right.
